Energsmart Insulation

For New Builds in western New York, our foam products are ideal due to their air sealing nature. They provide comfortable and efficient homes every day of your home ownership. The NYS Energy Code was updated in 2016 and now requires stringent tightness standards and testing for homes. Spray foam helps home owners meet these requirements with ease. The professionals at Energsmart also provide any blower door testing or other certifications now needed for new homes. Most homes built before 1970 have little to no insulation.

While Energsmart's foam insulation products provide the greatest efficiency in the industry, we realize that premium foam insulation doesn't fit every budget. Along with being more efficient than fiberglass, cellulose is also much healthier. Cellulose insulation is made almost entirely of recycled newspapers, making it the "greenest" insulation product available. The physical consistency of cellulose is similar to clumpy sawdust, and it can either be loose blown into attics or dense packed into side walls or floored attics.

Our trusted process, which has been effectively used since the 1970s, makes necessary roof replacement a cost-effective and pleasant experience. On a properly maintained roof, the foam will last centuries. Over time, the protective coating on the roof will degrade, at which point the roof simply needs to be power washed and recoated for a fraction of the cost of the original install. During the recoating process, no additional foam is needed. Historically, there have been many different roofing materials used in our region.

Today's foam insulation has a solid 30-year track record and provides numerous financial and health benefits when compared to fiberglass. To make an informed decision on the insulation used for your home, you need to look at the "big picture" - considering both the initial costs AND the reduction in gas, electricity, and other energy costs you'll see with spray foam insulation. When you understand the concepts of payback and payoff, foam insulation is an easy decision. Energy costs typically increase.
